Post-Purchase: Generating a CSR and Validating Ownership

To issue your certificate, the Certificate Authority (CA) needs a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) from your server.

How to Generate a CSR in cPanel:

  1. Log in to cPanel and go to SSL/TLS Manager.
  2. Click Certificate Signing Requests (CSR).
  3. Fill in your details (ensure the "Country" and "State" match your business registration).
  4. Copy the long block of text (starting with -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----) and paste it into the activation form in your Jiinubi Client Area.

Domain Control Validation (DCV)

You must prove you own the domain. Choose one of the following methods:

  • Email: An approval link is sent to info@yourdomain.com.
  • DNS: Add a specific TXT/CNAME record provided by the CA to your DNS settings.
  • HTTP File: Upload a small .txt file to a specific folder on your server.
